BSU holds Member Appreciation Day Saturday, March 23

Bonita Springs
Utilities Inc. invites its members for an open house and informational tours
Saturday, March 23, from 10 a.m.to 2 p.m. Member Appreciation Day will be held
at the customer service building and water plant at 11900 E. Terry St. in
Bonita Springs.

Members can tour the two water plants
and new customer service building, in addition to enjoying food and
refreshments. The family-friendly event offers the opportunity for members to learn
about the utility’s operations and see how water is processed. Kid-friendly
activities such as face painting and balloon animals will also be available.

BSU
employees will lead walking tours and explain how the reverse-osmosis and
lime-softening water treatment plants convert raw water from underground
aquifers into pure drinking water. The water from these two processes is
blended together to provide optimum taste and purity before it is sent to
members’ homes and businesses.

not-for-profit water and wastewater utility cooperative founded by local

Bonita Springs, the Village of Estero and unincorporated South Lee County. The
